Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Elizabethtown
Against Bartholomew County at 41.3%, 29% of renters here are cost-burdened. 20% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.8/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 2/10. At $1,056 a month, rents run 21% over what the rest of Elizabethtown commands.
SNAP participation runs 7.2% against 15.2% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 29th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 13% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
Social vulnerability reads 4.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Against average income of $77,336, annual rent is just 16%. It tracks the Bartholomew County average of 3.8 closely.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
